4:01 pm
new on their prosthetics or in a wheelchair even, that's a long distance to go. >> shepard: after fox news got on the case, word that walter reed is fixing the problem. tonight, the plan to avoid insult to injury. plus, bit coin is is a digital currency that can replace cash. but because it's unregulated and nearly untraceable, people can use it to buy drugs or guns or anything illegal. now, an investigation into the threat of virtual money. >> shepard: but there is breaking news just in. we had no idea this was about to happen. we are told moments from now we will hear from the 16-year-old girl who survived a kidnapping that took her from southern california to idaho. remember, a family friend is said to have killed a mother and son and kidnapped the 16-year-old daughter hannah anderson. the murder and kidnapper shot dead by police. hannah anderson, we are told. will take to the microphone
4:02 pm
any moment to tell the story of her harrowing ordeal. we'll bring it to you live when it happens. first from fox this thursday night a crucial american ally is in turmoil and spiraling out of control. egyptian say more than 600 people are dead in the latest fighting there. and now we know the muslim brotherhood is planning a mass finale tomorrow mass challenge against its government. this was the scene a short while ago. fires on the road. earlier the government officially gave police the go ahead to use deadly force against protesters. these protesters have been burning christian churches and government buildings. and attacking security forces. tonight, all evidence shows this is getting worse, not better. and as fox reports tonight, we cannot know how bad it will get. but, much may destabilize the entire region.
4:03 pm
[gunfireself] >> shepard: this all began in earnest yesterday when riot police were cracking down on protesters, mohammed morsi the muslim brotherhood elected president last year. crackdown. the military staged a coup and booted him from office. within the last day, pro-morsey forces have set fire to churches across the country. dozens of them reportedly. egyptian state tv blames his supporters tore torching two government building across the nile from cairo. on the road that leads to the egyptian pyramids. egypt's second largest city alexandria thousands protesters marched through a mosque chanting support for morsey and the muslim brotherhood. back in cairo hundreds of
4:04 pm
brotherhood members protested outside a mosque. while inside families tried to identify loved ones among the twisted limbs and blood-soaked bodies of the dead. more than 200 bodies there alone. the reality is we have no idea tonight how many corpses lie in egypt streets. how many more may join them before this end. there is no doubt all americans have a vested interest in how this develops. egypt is our most important arab ally. it's also right next door to israel and if egypt falls into civil war, it could effect the decades old peace treatedy with israel. earlier today the white house released a photo of president obama on the phone with his national --urity team disgusting discussing the crisis in egypt. he is condemning the fighting. >> let me say that the egyptian people deserve better than what we he have seen over the last several days. the egyptian people let me
4:05 pm
say the cycle of violence and escalation needs to stop. >> shepard: but again, the president refrained from calling the situation in egypt a coup that's the reason for what it is. if they use the label officially that would force the united states to cancel a bill nafdz in aide that we give the egyptian military each year. that money is our leverage over all of this. the state department said that only washington is continuing to review the aid to egypt. tonight, protesters and police are still killing each other in the streets. wendell goler is live from martha's vineyard tonight. >> shep, the president says both sides in the egyptian conflict have accused the u.s. of supporting the other. he says ultimately the egyptians are going to have to resolve the dispute on their own. >> we want egypt to succeed. we want a peaceful, democratic, prosperous egypt. that's our interest. but, to achieve that, the
4:06 pm
egyptians are going to have to do the work. >> but kentucky senator rand paul, no friend of the muslim brotherhood criticized mr. obama's refusal to cut off aid to the egyptian military. paul said, quote: the law is very clear when a could you takes place coup must stop regardless of the the white house says he didn't govern democratically. some people fine with morsi's ouster question the wisdom of canceling the military exercise. >> i would say chris size them publicly. privately get a real pulls for what's going on in egypt today and see if we can't influence events. >> by any main stay of u.s. egyptian relations since 19 1. it hasn't been held since 2009 because of egypt's political instability. shepard?
4:07 pm
>> wendell goler in massachusetts tonight. attacking some of our nuclear plants could be a peace of cake for the terrorists. that's according to a brand new report, commissioned by the pentagon. in a 32 page paper, experts at the nuclear proliferation prevention project last our federal government for not imposing better security standards. they say we are not prepared for multiple scenarios. everything from an attack on 00 scale of 9/11 to a nuclear meltdown like the one at fukushima in japan. one of the report's authors concludes these nuclear reactors are naked. doug mckelway with the rest of story tonight from d.c. doug? >> and, shep, this report flies in the face of what the nuclear industry says about its own security since 9/11. this industry handout tape shows typical kind of security, nuke have outer security ring controlled and inner security ring marked by double fencing topped with raiser. third layer vital equipment used to shut down react
4:08 pm
torres. then the containment vessel itself. >> the plant is also physically protected with multiple players of steel and concrete. this approach of layered backup systems is tim call of sophisticated nuclear plant engineering, design and operations. >> that industry perspective stands in stark contrast to what university of texas researchers found. >> u.s., civilian nuclear power plant are not protected against attacks from the air. they are not protected against attacks from the sea. they are not protected against rocket-propelled grenades. they are not protected against 50 caliber sniper rifles using armored piercing ammunition. which those are are the greatest threat. >> the industry says its tests show containment vessels can sustain a direct impact from a boeing 767. that contradicts findings by the u.s. national laboratory which found it would breech the containment vessel. so, shep, it boils down to
4:09 pm
who do you trust? >> doug mckelway live in washington. the u.s. military now announcing new steps to crackdown on sexual assaults within its ranks. the pentagon now reports it will allow commanders to transfer troops who ho are suspected of sex crimes to cut down on contact with their victims. this will also create a new program to provide legal representation to the victims and allow victims to have a say during the sentencing phase of a court martial. recent report suggested the number of sexual assaults in our military may have increased by more than one third last year alone. a teenage beauty pageant winner says somebody hacked her bedroom web cam to take photos of her. and now fox news confirms the fbi is investigating. the pageant windsor cassidy wolf. she is from california and over the weekend she became the new miss teen u.s.a. and she says several months ago somebody contacted her claiming to have hacked into her computer to take those web cam photos. the blackmailer threatened
